#grief-and-hope

Navy Blue raps as though he's leading you out of a dark, damp tunnel and into the light. His voice is measured and restrained, often strident, as if he's talking you through breathing exercises to ground you in the throes of a panic attack. Since Sage Elsesser's debut LP as Navy Blue, 2020's Àdá Irin, he's been paring his music down to be the purest elemental reflection of his heart.
